I use a sniper but think something should be done.

Ok not complaining here but something needs to be said about what they did to shotguns... Some people clearly have no idea how much "range" a shotgun has and since that update unless I wanna get last word spammed or "quickscoped" it's just not worth the risk of running shotgun, as for snipers I think something needs to be done e.g no aim assist so they can't just lock on and drag they scope with it, massively increase scope in and out times, and not just pulling the scope and being lucky to dome someone crossmap. So pretty much they penalised shotgun users, it's only fair they penalise snipers at close range?

  • If we're going for a 'realistic' kind of feel then shotguns needed no Nerf at all. And snipers should technically get a buff in close range because of the size of the rounds they fire, battlefield 4 did it well with snipers being a one shot kill to the body within a certain distance without defensive perk and then damage dropping off the further out you were.. Granted destiny is a completely different style of game but I enjoyed getting those twitch no scopes on someone trying to knife me and them sending me salty messages I still don't think shotguns needed s Nerf regardless. They're supposed to be deadly up close that's what they're designed for and reducing their range is no good, I've seen shotguns decimate targets from all sorts of ranges and I think too many people just don't know how to counter shotgun uses hence the cry for Nerf [spoiler]you can counter anything if you're not an idiot why bother nerfing everything [/spoiler]
